. Bestbuy currently has 2TB Seagate game drives on sale for $69.99 (USD). Would this be a good purchase?
I'd say that's not bad. FWIW, Amazon has the generic 2TB portable Seagate on sale for $60 right now.

Not matter what, I'd say that getting some kind of portable drive is a good idea. With how big games are getting, 512GB is kinda at the point where it may not be enough if you're planning on having a healthy number of games (the FH5 pre-install is around 112GB, for reference). I believe the only downside is that you can't play dedicated Xbox Series S/X games off the drive, and that they have to be installed in the systems internal memory for them to run. And Seagate, as far as I understand (it's the only brand I've used) tends to make the best overall product.

That is very unfortunate. Luckily I already have a WD 5 TB (I believe) external hard drive. Instead of purchasing a smaller more portable external hard drive. I think I'll wait for the expansion cards to come down in price.

I've been enamored with this small French band/group since 2014.

This was their first real album and their last, released in 2016. They disbanded in 2017 :/ That means that the vinyl options they had during release have skyrocketed. I've never exactly had interest in vinyl, but I recall seeing them when they were released. Considering the vinyl is going for $500 USD or somewhere around that amount, I went with the trusty CD.

I already own the digital version of the album since its release, but I thought it would be cool to pick up something as memorabilia from my late teens and early twenties. That was when I was learning French on my free-time. I can still speak a bit, but I can barely understand it.

Here's their most popular song -


Here's my favorite song from the album I bought -

Had to buy a new Dualsense because of stick drift.
That is worrisome, to say the least (abuse aside). The console hasn't even been out that long, assuming you got it on launch day. I've had a launch edition PS4 and only now has one of my controllers displayed stick drift, and I abuse the 🤬 out of it. The triggers failing are a common failure point and an easy fix on the DS4, kinda worried about the triggers on the DS5. I didn't expect them to already show signs of stick drift :/

Yes, apart of the multi compartments, that's a USB port and a 3.5 mm headphone jack in a backpack :dopey:

Atlanta Braves cap, because I made the mistake of promising @a6m5 that I would buy one if the Braves won the World Series. Obviously they haven't done that (yet). But I saw this one for a decent price on a website that does free shipping for domestic orders. I liked the style and it was the last one they had of it in L/XL. Figured I may as well just go ahead and bite the bullet.

I don't want to get technical, but if you bought this before they made it to the World Series..... Again, I'm not a lawyer or anything, but should this one count, or are you obligated to buy another one? jk jk lol lol

Congratulations on your latest baseball hat. Your taste is massively improving(probably).

Not sure if you’re aware but Pierre Rousseau behind the music of Paradise has his own projects on Bandcamp.
 
Not a huge Chase Elliott fan but thought this was fun. It references a comment he made during a post race interview a couple of weeks ago.
